If it was suppose to be different Kakomu they would of not slapped the Escaflowne name so big and bold in the advertisement and had the anouncer saying based on the hit series Escaflowne. Its an advertising ploy thats all
The name of the movie is 'Escaflowne'. What else did you expect them to put on there? And it is based on the TV series. See the similar characters? See the similarities in part of the storyline? There is nothing wrong with what they did. It did not say 'Identical to the TV series'. It said 'based on', which is true. And how big they want to put the title of the DVD on the cover is up to them.
But like someone said earlier - Why would you want a rehash/summary of the series if you've already seen the series? Personally, I think you're bitching about something that they've done nothing wrong about. It didn't meet your expectation so you're upset about it. While everyone else here sees nothing wrong with it. I think you're alone on this one and your complaint doens't make much sense to me at all.
